"GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network, is the leading national education organization focused on ensuring safe schools for all students. GLSEN envisions a world in which every child learns to respect and accept all people, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity/expression. GLSEN seeks to develop school climates where difference is valued for the positive contribution it makes to creating a more vibrant and diverse community."

The website is a great resource for educators and students. It provides resources for teachers on how to lead an inclusive discussion, implement inclusive curriculumn, create a inclusive classroom environment, training workshops. It even provides free curriculum K-12 on respect, LGBT history, and links to videos and books related to LGBT issues that teachers can use in their classroom both elementary and secondary to create a safe community for ALL students.

This is a wonderful culturally responsive tool that I will continue to use as I prepare myself to become a culturally responsive teacher for my students.
